During my future trip to Japan, my short-term goals include the more simple things, such as making an effort to connect with my classmates and experience the local culture, such as the night life or any historic monuments nearby. In the long-term, I want to gain multiple contacts in Japan for later social or career networking. I also want to focus on improving my Japanese Language skills, and I want to become more engrossed in Japanese Literature. For these things, I need to prepare myself mentally by building up my language and interpersonal communication skills as much as possible so I can fully absorb my surroundings and fully comprehend my learning opportunities. Is there something I can do, specifically, that can increase my connection to the Japanese Language, but also leave a remembrance on my respective host university and classmates? Where can I find the tools to build the foundations for my "castles in the sky"?
